    Notes: ---Organozinc halides derived from Grignard reagents behave differently in their reaction with ethyl (±±)-(2RS,3SR)-tetrahydro-4-methylene-2-phenyl-3-(phenylsulfonyl)furan-3-carboxylate (3) according to the hybridisation of the carbon ligand. During the development of short multi-component reactions for the synthesis of diverse functionalized ethyl 2,5-dihydrofuran-3-carboxylates it was discovered that aryl and vinyl zinc halides undergo clean reaction with 3 in the presence of Pd(PPh3)4. In contrast, when alkyl zinc halides are reacted with 3 in the presence of Pd(PPh3)4, reductive desulfonation of 3 is observed. Remarkably, in the absence of a transition metal catalyst, the allylic substitution of 3 with alkyl zinc halides proceeds cleanly and in moderate to good yield.

    Notes: ---Prochiral 1,3-dihydroxyacetone forms racemic oxazolidine- and oxazoline-type spiro[4.4]nonanes upon reactions with potassium (thio)cyanate and cyanamide. In contrast, 1,3-diaminoacetone yields only the corresponding spiro-bisimidazolidinethione under similar conditions together with monocyclic by-products, but the spiro-bisimidazolidinone is accessible by reaction of 1,3-dichloroacetone with urea. The resolution of the racemic spiro-bisoxazolidinethione 2a was achieved by using brucine as the resolving agent.

    Notes: ---Rigid N=N/N=N (diazene/diazene) systems (F) consisting of more or less alkylated DBH and DBO chromophoric units (1, 2, X-ray structures), with very short π,π distances [d = 2.849 (1a, av.), 2.822 Å (2)] and almost perfect syn-periplanar π,π alignments [ω = 168.6 (1a), 174.2° (2)] as well as the more flexible, less “proximate” metathesis isomers (3a,c, 27a,c, d 〉4.6 Å, ω = 90-100°) have been synthesized. Homoconjugate π,π interaction (in 1, 2, not in 3, 27) is deduced from UV spectroscopic measurements [π → π* maxima at 239 (234) nm (sh, 260)], while PE analyses furnished only small interaction parameters (1a: 〈0.3 eV). The potential of the novel syn-periplanar N=N/N=N motif in 1 and 2 for the synthesis of somewhat exotic polyheterocycles has been explored by calculation (B3LYP) as well as experimentally: i.a. kinetically stabilized, all-cis-peralkylated tetrazolidines (38, 44) and perhydro-1,2,4,5-tetrazines (41, 47) have become accessible (i.a. via novel azomethine/diazene and azomethine/azomethine cycloadditions). In 1a with its unreactive DBO chromophoric subunits, in the “buttressed” derivatives 1b-d, as well as in the DBH/DBO combination 2, and likewise in more ‘distant’ 27 (differently from the analogous C=C/C=C and N=N/C=C systems), irrespective of the excitation conditions employed (light of λ ≥≥ 280, 254 nm, low temperature matrix irradiation, acetone sensitization) no [2+2]photocycloaddition was observed. Instead exclusively N2-elimination took place. It is argued that unproductive N=N/N=N photocycloaddition would have become observable through metathesis isomerization of the respective tetrazetidines.

    Notes: ---Of two very proximate syn-periplanar bisdiazenes (1,2) mono-, di-, tri- and tetra-N-oxides were prepared, representing six combinations of the individual N=N/N=NO/ON=NO chromophores. According to DFT calculations (B3LYP/6-31G*), [2+2]photocycloaddition to the respective oxidized tetrazetidines is significantly to moderately endothermic. The metathesis isomerization of the oxidized tetrazetidines is generally highly exothermic and kinetically increasingly favorable with increasing oxidation state. In practice, four out of the six bichromophoric combinations undergo selectively, in competition with N2 elimination from a DBH unit (13) still partially, metathesis isomerization upon π → π* excitation (monochromatic 254 nm light). In the case of the syn-N=NO/N=NO combinations (5/6, 14), the photoaddition is thermally reversed. For a ON=NO/N=N combination (30), internal electron transfer is responsible for a complex reaction pattern. The preparative value of the metathesis reactions, though, is limited: The metathesis-derived bis[diazene mono(di)oxides] undergo relatively fast secondary photoreactions, while the tri(tetra)oxides undergo rapid thermal transformations. For the N=N/N=NO systems (12), of three potential pathways for its metathesis isomerization, the one that takes place via σ-symmetric intermediates (63, 64) is excluded by virtue of the retention of optical purity in the photometathesis of a highly enriched enantiomer [(-)-12]. Matrix irradiation experiments (12 K, IR control) with 12 result in the appearance of a kinetically highly labile transient. Supported by DFT calculations it is concluded that in the metathesis reactions, the respective tetrazetidine oxides (increasingly destabilized by interactions between oxygen lone pairs and NNσ* orbitals) function as vibrationally excited transients. That thermal reversion of these transients might be a general, nonproductive competition, is suggested by the experimental verification of a “reversed photometathesis” (51 → 15) and by the generally low rates in product formation upon irradiation. The question remains to be answered why in structurally analogous molecular skeletons, [2+2]photocycloaddition occurs in the C=C/N=N and variously oxidized N=N/N=N, and not, however, in the parent N=N/N=N combinations.

The acridone was converted into 1,4-dimethoxy-9-ethynylacridine (11) by a triflate coupling. The ethynylacridine was converted in one-pot into 3H-6-methoxypyrido[2,3,4-kl]acridine (15) by reaction with sodium diformylamide; the mechanism of this key transformation is discussed. Conversion into 6H-4-bromopyrido[2,3,4-kl]acridin-6-one (19) and 6H-pyrido[2,3,4-kl]acridin-6-one (17), followed by reaction of each of these under high pressure conditions with acrolein N,N-dimethylhydrazone, gave ascididemine and its isomer, respectively.

    Notes: -D-Glucurono-3,6-lactone and L-cysteine combine in a highly stereoselective manner to give the 7,5-bicyclic thiazolidinlactam 2. The α-hydroxy group of the D-glucurono-3,6-lactone was exchanged for an amino function (to give 13) and, after condensation with L-cysteine methyl ester, the polyol dipeptide 7 was obtained. Peptide couplings proceed without the need to protect the three secondary hydroxy groups of the seven-membered ring. The amino group of 7 was deprotected and selectively elongated to the pseudo-tripeptide 16. The depsipeptide 17 was obtained by condensation of Boc-Ala-OH with the polyol 2. Elongation at the carboxy terminus yielded 19 and 20. The bicyclic scaffold populates a well-defined solution conformation; the hydroxy groups mimic the side chains of hydrophilic amino acids and can be further functionalized.

    Notes: ---The chances for intramolecular imine/ene (→ azetidines), diazene/ene (→ 1,2-diazetidines), diazeneoxy/ene (→ 1,2-diazetidine oxides) and diazenedioxiene (→ 1,2-diazetidine dioxides) [2+2]photocycloadditions and for the isolation of the respective photoproducts, have been probed with specifically designed substrates. Upon direct or sensitized excitation, [2+2]cycloaddition was found to be the exclusive or at least dominant chemical process for the C=N/C=C, N=N/C=C and ON=N(O)/C=C systems featuring very small π,π-distances of 2.8-3.0 Å and large π,π-interorbital angles of 160-170° (7 → 51, 17 → 55, 33 → 58 (competing N2 elimination), 22 → 62). This is not the case, however, in ON=NO/C=C (23, where electron transfer is a possibility), or in the more flexible, less “proximate” C=N/C=N (57) and C=NO/C=N (63) systems (π,π-distances of 〉3.8 Å). While the corseted 1,2-diazetidine photoadducts (55, 58) proved to be thermally stable, their N-oxides (62, 65) were thermally too labile to be directly observable above -65 °C. For the latter's only fleeting existence, electronic rather than strain effects are held responsible (B3LYP/6-31G* calculations). Very facile C=NO/C=C (12 → 13) and N=NO/C=C (22 → 24) [3+2]cycloadditions, homoconjugate addition of H2 and of dienophiles ([2+2+2]) to the diazene/ene 17 (→ 39, 41, 45) are manifestations of “proximity” in these bichromophoric skeletons.

    Notes: Ab initio quantum chemical calculations have been used to explore the P3H3 potential energy surface focussing on the ring-chain rearrangements of the three-membered ring in (PH)3 (1), the parent triphosphirane. Relative energies between stationary points were estimated using the QCISD(T)/6-311G(d,p) method based on MP2/6-31G(d,p) geometries and corrected for zero-point contributions. Ring strain, proton affinities, ionization and excitation energies and heats of formation have been evaluated using larger basis sets, e.g. 6-311++G(3df,2p). The cyclic trans-triphosphirane (1a) is the most stable P3H3 isomer and lies about 40 kJ/mol below the open-chain phosphanyldi-phosphene (H2P-P=PH). The decrease of ring strain in three-membered rings when CH2 is replaced by PH is confirmed. Triphosphirane 1a is a virtually strain-free ring and even gains some stabilization relative to three separate P-P single bonds. The reduced ring strain also helps diminish the phosphorus inversion barrier to 224 kJ/mol compared to the monocyclic isomers of (CH2)(PH)2 and (CH2)2(PH). Compound 1a follows a pure ring-opening or a 1,2-hydrogen shift rather than a combined motion pathway, in fundamental contrast with corresponding processes of diphosphirane and phosphirane. This is due to the existence of an open-chain P3H3 phosphorane intermediate stabilized by allylic conjugation. The pericyclic ring-opening of 1a is the most favored process but the energy barrier in the gas phase is about 180 kJ/mol high. Electron density is largely delocalized within the three-membered P3 ring not only in the C3v-symmetric 1b (all-cis) but also in 1a (Cs). The proton affinity of 1a is similar to that of PH3. The proton affinities decrease with n in cyclo-(CH3)3 -n(PH)n and their values were obtained: PA(1a) = 777 ±10, PA(diphosphirane) = 799 ±10 and PA(phosphirane) = 802 ±10 kJ/mol. Heats of formation are evaluated as follows (ΔH°f0 at 0 K in kJ/mol): 1a, 70 ±10; cyclo-(PH)2(PH2)+ (protonated 1a), 821 ±10; diphosphirane, 85 ±10; cyclo-(CH2)(PH)(PH2)+ (protonated diphosphirane), 814 ±10; phosphirane, 86 ±10; and protonated phosphirane, 812 ±10 kJ/mol. All P rings remain cyclic following ionization to the radical cations. Adiabatic ionization energies (IEa) are estimated as: 1a and diphosphirane, 9.3 ±0.3 eV and phosphirane 9.5 ±0.3 eV. The first UV absorption band shifts toward the longer wavelength region on going from phosphirane to 1a. The GIAO/B3LYP computed magnetic shieldings for 1a and related molecules reveal a clear relationship between the narrow bond angles in the rings and their unusually strong magnetic shielding. The similarity of the predicted 31P-NMR signals in 1a and its heteroanalog diphosphirane, (CH2)(PH)2, can be rationalized in terms of a compensation of the carbon-substituent effect (downfield shift) and the bond-bending effect imposed by the ring (upfield shift).

    Notes: ---The electrophilic properties of the 4H-imidazoles 1 and their protonated derivatives 2 permit the introduction of nucleophilic building blocks, as illustrated by reactions of 1 with selected amines. Depending on the nature of the amine and the substituents R1 on the heterocycle 1, single (3) or double (4) transamination is observed. The 1H-NMR spectra of the products, as well as X-ray structure analyses of compounds 3f and 4c, confirm that the residues at the 4- and/or 5-positions of 1 are exchanged. The tautomerism between 3e-h and 3e′-h′ seems to be central to the chemistry of these mixed substituted derivatives. Using orthoesters and acetophenone dimethylacetal as cyclization partners, the imidazo[4,5-d]imidazoles 5 and the 4H-imidazo[4,5-b]pyrazines 6 are obtained, respectively. Reduction of 3e with Zn/HCl or H2S leads to the air-sensitive, strongly fluorescent leuco compounds 8. Quenching of 8 by addition of aromatic aldehydes results in a condensation reaction and, coupled with the subsequent redox disproportionation, this conversion constitutes an alternative route to imidazo[4,5-d]imidazoles of type 11. The unexpected reaction of 3e-h with Lawesson's reagent allows synthesis of the 6-azapentafulvenes 14. The relevant spectral data show 14 to be members of a new chromophoric system, in which an electron-rich five-membered ring is coupled with an electron-deficient ring.

    Notes: -Batzellines A and B (1a, b) and isobatzellines A and B (2a, b) are 1,3,4,5-tetrahydropyrrolo[4,3,2-de]quinoline-containing marine alkaloids characterized by the presence of a methylthio substituent at C-2 of the tricyclic system. We describe here the total synthesis of these natural compounds following the synthetic strategy that we have used previously for the synthesis of damirones A and B, batzelline C, isobatzelline C, discorhabdin C, and makaluvamines A, B, C, and D. The introduction of the methylthio group by electrophilic substitution of a pyrrolo[4,3,2-de]quinoline, appropriately substituted and in a suitable oxidation state, is the key step in the success of these syntheses.

Bicyclic 2-methoxyfurans 6 are formed when 1a,c,e (containing terminal alkyne functions) are treated with catalytic amounts of copper(I) chloride. The experimental observations are explained in terms of metal-mediated intramolecular cyclopropenation and subsequent metal-assisted ring-opening of the strained bicyclic cyclopropene leading to vinylcarbene-metal complexes.

    The Preparation of 2,3,5-Tri- and 2,3-Disubstituted Furans by Regioselective Palladium(0)-Catalyzed Coupling Reactions: Application to the Syntheses of Rosefuran and the F5 Furan Fatty Acid (1999)

    Notes: The 5-acceptor-substituted 2,3-dibromofurans 1 and 2 underwent a regioselective Pd0-catalyzed coupling reaction at the C-2 carbon atom. With alkynes the corresponding 2-alkynylfurans 4 and 5 were accessible (49-97% yield). Alkyl-, aryl-, and alkenylzinc reagents gave the 2-substituted furans 8 starting from compound 2 (66-84% yield). The 2-allylfurans 8e and 8f were obtained by a regioselective Stille coupling in 79% and 73% yield. The latter reaction was also applied to the parent 2,3-dibromofuran (27) and yielded the substitution product 28 (60% yield). Subsequent Pd0-catalyzed reactions to introduce a methyl group in 3-position by a methyldebromination were successfully conducted for 2-alkynyl-3-bromofurans with MeZnCl and PdCl2(PPh3)2 as the catalyst in THF (reflux) to yield compounds 13-16 and 24 (67-76%) and with SnMe4 and PdCl2[P(o-Tol)3]2 as the catalyst in DMA (90 °C) for the 2-allyl-3-bromofuran 8e to yield 18 (70%). The more facile reaction of the 2-alkynylfurans relative to those of furans bearing an sp3-carbon atom at C-2 appears to be due to steric reasons. Studies on the 2-alkyl-3-bromofuran 20 supported this notion. With the regioselective coupling methodology the terpene rosefuran (22) was prepared in four steps starting from furan 2 (35% yield overall). The F5 furan fatty acid (26) was synthesized from furan 1 in five steps (29% yield overall).

    Notes: (η2-Formaldehyde)zirconocene dimer (8) cleanly adds one or two molar equivalents of the borane HB(C6F5)2 by insertion of the H-[B] unit into the zirconium-carbon bond of the metallaoxirane moieties to form the mono- and bis-insertion products 16 and 17, respectively. These systems contain five-membered heterocyclic rings that are built up by connecting five different elements, namely H, B, C, O, and Zr. The bis(borane) insertion product 17 was characterized by an X-ray crystal structure analysis. (Butadiene)zirconocene reacts with HB(C6F5)2 in a similar way by insertion of the H-[B] unit into the (butadiene)C4-Zr linkage to form the metallacycle 18.

    Notes: The Staudinger-model reaction H3P (1) + HN3 (2) → H3P=NH (5) + N2 (6) has been investigated at the CCSD(T)/6-31G**//MP2(Full)/6-31G* level. Primary products formed in this reaction are the phosphazides H3P=N-N=NH (3) which exist as trans and cis isomers. In contrast to some previous assumptions, cis -3is 8.2 kcal mol-1 more stable than trans -3 but decomposes rather easily into the expected products H3P=NH and N2. This decomposition can be effectively hampered by intramolecular donor-acceptor interactions as shown by calculations on model compounds as well as by experiments. Thus the reaction of a methylene-σ3,λ3-phosphanyl-σ5,λ5-phosphorane with PhN3 led to a new four-membered heterocycle containing a thermally remarkable stable cis-phosphazide moiety.

    Notes: Direct oxidation of PhC(O)NHPPh2, H2NC(S)NHPPh2, (C5H4N)C(S)NHPPh2 with O2, S8, or Se gives [PhC(O)NHP(O)Ph2] (1), [H2NC(S)NHP(S)Ph2] (2), [H2NC(O)NHP-(S)Ph2] (3), [PhC(O)NHP(S)Ph2] (4), [(C5H4N)C(S)NHP(S)Ph2] (5), and [H2NC(S)NHP(Se)Ph2] (6). Deprotonation of 1, 2, 4-6 with potassium tert-butoxide gives K[PhC(O)NP(O)Ph2] (7), K[H2NC(S)NP(S)Ph2] (8), K[PhC(O)NP(S)Ph2] (9), K[(C5H4N)C(S)NP(S)Ph2] (10), and K[H2NC(S)NP(Se)Ph2] (11). Reaction of 4with KOBu and [Cu(Ph3P)2][NO3] gives [Cu(Ph3P)(PhC(O)NP(S)Ph2)] (12) which is the first crystallographically characterised example of a non-ionic six-membered “true” heterocycle (i.e. a ring in which every heterocatom is different). 9 and 10 were treated with [PdCl2(COD)] to give [Pd{PhC(O)NP(S)Ph2}2] (13) and [Pd{(C5H4N)C(O)NP(S)Ph2}2] (14), respectively The anion of 8 coordinates to zinc forming [Zn{H2NC(S)NP(S)Ph2}2] (15). Treatment of 2 or 8 with [PtCl2(COD)] gives [Pt{H2NC(S)NP(S)Ph2}{H2NC(S)NHP(S)Ph2}]+Cl- (16) and [Pt{H2NC(S)NP(S)Ph2}2] (17), respectively. The X-ray structures of 12, 15-17are reported.

    Notes: 6,6′-Bis(diethylboryl)-2,2′-bipyridine (1a) was obtained in low yield by in situ deprotonation of 2,2′-bipyridine in the presence of diethyl(methoxy)borane. 6,6′-Dilithio-2,2′-bipyridine reacts with various alkoxyboranes leading to bipyridinediborates 2 in good yields. The derivatives 2b and 2c allow the formation of the free diborylbipyridines 1b and 1c. The coordination properties of the diboryl-bipyridines as tetrafunctional donor-acceptor compounds have been used for the formation of the copper complex 4 and of the adduct 5 which is built from diborylbipyridine and a dihydroxydiboroxan derivative. The composition of the products follows from spectroscopic data and from X-ray structure analyses for 2f, 4, and 5.

Treatment of 1a with n-butyllithium afforded 2-n-butyl-1,3-di-tert-butyl-2,3-dihydro-1H-1,3,2-diazaborole (5a), whereas 1,3-di-tert-butyl-2-cyano-2,3-dihydro-1H-1,3,2-diazaborole (3a) was converted into the 2-tert-butyl derivative 6a or the 2-ethynyl-1,3,2-diazaborole 7a by means of tert-butyllithium or by the ethylenediamine adduct of lithium acetylide. Similarly, 1,3-di-tert-butyl-2-trimethylstannyl-2,3-dihydro-1H-1,3,2-diazaborole (8a) and 1,3-bis(2,6-dimethylphenyl)-2-trimethylstannyl-2,3-dihydro-1H-1,3,2-diazaborole (8b) were accessible from 1a or 2b and trimethylstannyllithium. In the complex 9a the compound 3a serves as an η1 ligand towards the [Cr(CO)5] unit via the cyano group.

In all cases we obtained an intramolecular cyclobutadiene complex stabilized with a CpCo fragment (15-26). For 3 we could isolate, besides the cyclobutadiene complex 16, the trimerization product 28. In the cases of 15, 16, 18, 20, 23, 25, and 26 the structure of the cylobutadiene complexes could be confirmed by X-ray studies. Common to all structures is a boat-like conformation of the tricyclic unit containing the cyclobutadiene ring. The two cycloheptene units adopt a chair conformation in which the heteroatom is removed from the metal center.

    Notes: The coordination behaviour of 2,6-disilyl-substituted phosphinines towards gold(I) has been examined. The reaction of the bis(trimethylsilyl)phosphinine 1 with [AuCl(SMe2)] gives the corresponding AuCl derivative 2. X-ray crystal structure analysis reveals that the aromaticity of the phosphinine ring is slightly reduced as a result of the poor π-back bonding ability of the AuCl fragment. The same phenomenon is observed in the cationic complex [Au(1)2][GaCl4] (3) which was readily prepared by reaction of two equivalents of 1 with [AuCl(SMe2)] followed by treatment with GaCl3 at low temperature. Reaction of 2,6-bis(phenylethynyldimethylsilyl)phosphinine (4) with the same precursor leads similarly to the complex [AuCl(4)] (5). Interestingly, this complex dimerizes upon crystallization to give the bis(phosphabarrelene) complex 6, also structurally characterized. The formation of 6 results from a [4 + 2] cycloaddition between one alkynyl group of each phosphinine with the other phosphinine subunit. The formation of the cationic complex [Au(4)][GaCl4] (8) occurs under classical conditions but it disproportionates to give the cationic complex [Au(4)2][GaCl4] (9) and colloidal gold deposition. The formation of 9 has been ascertained by treating 8 with one equivalent of ligand 4. Additionally, 9 can also be obtained in a straightforward fashion by treating two equivalents of 4 with [AuCl(SMe2)] followed by treatment with GaCl3 at low temperature. The structure of 9 has been elucidated. Despite a particular arrangement of the alkyne groups which encapsulate the gold coordination sphere, no gold-alkyne interactions are visible.

    Notes: New intramolecularly coordinated organotin compounds containing the monoanionic O,C,O-coordinating ligand {4-tert-Bu-2,6-[P(O)(OEt)2]2C6H2}- have been synthesized by substitution reactions starting from organotin halides. In view of the enhanced reactivity of the intramolecularly coordinated compounds {4-tert-Bu-2,6-[P(O)(OEt)2]2C6H2}SnR2R′ (2, R = Ph, R′ = CH2SiMe3; 3, R = R′ = Ph; 6, R = R′ = Cl), cationic tin species are suggested to occur as intermediates in the formation of the heterocyclic compounds [1(Sn),3(P)-Ph2SnOP(O)(OEt)-5-tert-Bu-7-P(O)(OEt)2]C6H2 (8), [1(Sn), 3(P)-Ph(Me3SiCH2)SnOP(O)(OEt)-5-tert-Bu-7-P(O)(OEt)2]C6H2 (15), and {[1(Sn),3(P)-Cl2SnOP(O)(OEt)-5-tert-Bu-7-P(O)(OEt)]C6H2}2 (16). The latter compounds are formed by intramolecular cyclizations of pentacoordinate cationic tin species under elimination of ethyl halide. Furthermore, the synthesis of [1(Sn),3(P)-Ph2SnOP(O)(OH)-5-tert-Bu-7-P(O)(OH)2]C6H2 (13) is described. Reaction of 8 with an excess of Me3SiBr leads to the unexpected formation of {2-[P(O)(OEt)(OSiMe3)]-4-tert-Bu-6-[P(O)(OEt)2]C6H2}SnPhBr2 (9) as a result of an O-Sn bond cleavage initiated by Me3SiBr and subsequent reaction of the intermediate with further Me3SiBr under Sn-C bond cleavage. The high donor capacity and the rigidity of the new ligand {4-tert-Bu-2,6-[P(O)(OEt)2]2C6H2}- are demonstrated by X-ray diffraction analyses of the tetraorganotin compound 2 and the monoorganotin trichloride 6. Furthermore, the molecular structures of the 2,3,1-oxaphosphastannoles 8 and 16 are discussed.

    Notes: The cyclocondensation reaction of benzil-bis(trimethylsilylimin) (3) and Cl2B-NiPr2 via silicon-boron exchangeresults in the solvent-dependent formation of the 1,3,2-diazaborole 1a or the 1,3,6,8,2,7-tetraazadiborecin 2a. Using the more rigid 9,10-bis(trimethylsilylimino)phenanthrene instead of 3 only the five-membered heterocycle 4,5-biphenylene-2-diisopropylamino-1,3,2-diazaborole (1b) is formed. The cyclic ketiminoboranes are characterized by NMR and X-ray diffraction data. The 1,3,2-diazaborole ring is almost planar, while the conformation of the 1,3,6,8,2,7-tetraazadiborecin has the shape of a figure-eight loop.

    Notes: The reactions of [N3P3(dobp)2Cl2] and [N3P3(dobp)Cl4] with a mixture of HOC5H4N-4 and K2CO3 in acetone give the cyclotriphosphazenes [N3P3(dobp)2(OC5H4N-4)2] and [N3P3(dobp)(OC5H4N-4)4], respectively. These compounds react with [W(MeOH)(CO)5] in methanol to give mixtures of the polymetallic complexes [N3P3(dobp)2(OC5H4N-4)2{W(CO)5}x] (x = 1, 2) and [N3P3(dobp)(OC5H4N-4)4{W(CO)5}x] (x = 1-4), which are unstable in solution, slowly undergoing loss of the pentacarbonyl moiety. A complete characterization by multinuclear 1H, 15N, 31P, 183W magnetic resonance has revealed that the complexation of the N atom of one 4-oxypyridine ligand by the W(CO)5 fragment has a measurable effect on other parts of the phosphazene molecule very far away from the coordination site. The changes observed in δ183W have been used to identify the components in mixtures of compounds incorporating different numbers of tungsten atoms in the molecule. The characterization of less sensitive nuclei has been accomplished by means of indirect detection methods.

    Notes: New salts of thionated (naphthalene-1,8-diyl)bis(phosphonic) acid monoanhydrides [PPh4+]2[C10H6PS2(μ-S)PS22-] (2) and [K+]2[C10H6PS2(μ-S)POS2-]·H2O (3) both containing the C3P2S ring, were prepared in high yields by the reaction of 2,4-(naphthalene-1,8-diyl)-1,3,2,4-dithiadiphosphetane 2,4-disulfide (1) with NaHS and PPh4Cl, or KOH, respectively, in water. The derivative 3, containing a P=O terminal bond as well as P-S-P bridge, undergoes, in acid conditions, a rearrangement reaction leading to the O,S-symmetrically substituted derivative [K+]2[C10H6PS2(μ-O)PS22-] (4) containing a C3P2O heterocycle. Dipotassium salt 4 was converted into the bis(tetraphenylphosphonium) salt 5 by the treating with PPh4Cl. Hydrolysis of [PyH+][C10H6P(S)(NHMe)(μ-S)PS22-] (15) led to [CH3NH3+][PyH+][C10H6POS(μ-O)POS2-]·1.5 Py (6). New compounds were characterised by 31P{1H}-, 1H- and 13C{1H}-NMR, FT-IR, ES-MS and in the cases 2-6 by X-ray structure determination. The 31P{1H}-NMR spectra of these mixed O,S-derivatives are briefly discussed.

The corresponding 3-cyanato and 3-cyano derivatives 6 and 7 resulted from the reaction of 4 with AgOCN and AgCN, respectively. Compound 7 was transformed into the bis(1,2,4,3-triazaborolyl)oxane 8 by silver oxide. Compounds 1-8 were characterized by elemental analyses and spectroscopic methods (1H, 11B, and 13C NMR; IR; MS). The molecular structure of 8 was established by single-crystal X-ray diffraction analysis.

    Notes: Several derivatives of homopipecolic acid are prepared by α-amino alkylation of malonic acid with cyclic imines 6 and 7. These are prepared on a large scale and with different substitution patterns. The β-amino acids 8 and 9 were formed in high yield and with remarkable diastereoselectivity if chiral imines are used as starting materials. The diastereoselectivity of the amino alkylation leading to homopipecolic acid analogues is compared to those of thiazolidineacetic acids by epimerisation experiments. A method for resolution of the obtained racemic β-amino acids by diastereomeric salt formation is described. The β-amino acids 9 and 15 were converted into their corresponding carbacepham analogues 14 and isopenam 16. The isopenam endo-16 was selectively epimerised by mild basic treatment of the N/S-acetal to give an exo-configured precursor of isopenicillin G.

    Notes: The nucleophilic carbene 3-borane-1,4,5-trimethylimidazol-2-ylidene anion (1-) reacts with the electrophiles CH3I, (CH3)3SiCl, (CH3)3SnCl, and the bromodiazaboroline 7 to form the 2-substituted imidazoles 4, 5, 6, and 8. With triethylborane, the anionic carbene borane adduct 9- is obtained. An unexpected result was achieved when chlorodimethoxyborane and HBCl2 · S(CH3)2 were used as electrophiles. In both cases only the imidazabole 14a could be isolated. Imidazole 5, the imidazole borane adduct 3a and the imidazabole 14a were characterized by X-ray structure analyses.

    Notes: Catalytic hydrogenation of olefins containing functionalized silicon groups affords the saturated products in good yields. Chloro and alkoxy substituents at the silicon atom remain unaffected and, in the case of heterocyclic compounds, the cyclic or bicyclic moieties remain intact. The 2-silanorbornanes 4, 5, and 6 were synthesized from the corresponding 2-silanorbornenes 1, 2, and 3, and organosilanes 13 and 14 possessing the cyclopentyl group, were prepared from the cyclopentenyl-substituted precursors 10 and 12. The 3-vinyl-substituted silacyclobutanes 15, 17, and 18 were also hydrogenated in a simple apparatus with diethyl ether or THF as solvent, and Pd/C as a recoverable catalyst system. A basic organosilicon compound, trichloro(vinyl)silane, is hydrogenated in a nearly quantitative yield to form the saturated trichloro(ethyl)silane; this emphasizes the general applicability of this method.

    Notes: 2-(Dimethylamino)oxazoline-4-carboxylic acids 5 were prepared by condensation of binucleophilic amino acids 4and O-ethyl-N,N-dimethylisourea 3. New heterocyclic N-acetylglucosaminyl amides and chitobiosyl amides 8 were obtained by the coupling of tetraacetylglucosamine 6a or heptaacetylchitobiosylamine 6b with acid chlorides of heterocyclic carboxylic acids 2 or 5a and subsequent deacetylation. Based on their substitution patterns, compounds 8were expected to have inhibitory activity towards chitinases. Enzyme assays showed that glycosyl amides 8 indeed were moderate inhibitors of chitinases, the diacetylchitobiosyl amides 8d-f generally having higher inhibitory activities than the N-acetylglucosaminyl amide derivatives 8a-c. Inhibitory activities depended on the chitinase tested.

    Notes: The readily available 2-substituted 5-acetyl-4-thiazolyl triflates 2are useful building blocks for the preparation of functionalised thiazoles by means of palladium-catalysed cross-coupling reactions with organometallic reagents and alkoxycarbonylation and deoxygenation reactions. The combination of palladium-catalysed coupling of 2 together with 1-alkynes/6-endo-dig annulation reactions in the presence of ammonia leads to functionalised pyrido[3,4-c]thiazoles in satisfactory yields. The utilisation of uncatalysed displacement reactions of the triflate group represents a very simple method for the synthesis of 4-N-,4-O-, and 4-S-substituted thiazoles.

    Notes: Photolysis of (ethoxy)silyl-, (propyloxy)silyl-, and (isopro-pyloxy)silyl-substituted diazoacetates 1a-c leads to tetrahydro-1,2-oxasiloles 2a-c by intramolecular C-H insertion of a carbene intermediate. Photochemical or catalytic decomposition of (allyloxysilyl)diazoacetates 3a-e results in intramolecular cyclopropanation which provides 3-oxa-2-silabicyclo[3.1.0]hexane systems 5a-e. In contrast, the thermal reaction of 3b-d gives rise to 2,5-dihydro-1,2-oxasiloles 4b-d, which are likely to be formed on a pyrazoline rather than a carbene route. For (3-butenyloxysilyl)diazoacetate 3f, all modes of decomposition generate the 3-oxa-2-silabicyclo[4.1.0]heptane system 7. Fluoride-induced cleavage of the bicyclic systems 5b-d provides trans-2-hydroxyalkyl-1-cyclopropanecarboxylates 9 diastereospecifically.

    Notes: Azaspiropentanecarboxamides 10 and 12 are formed with remarkable ease in two steps in a one-pot operation from methyl 2-chloro-2-cyclopropylideneacetate (4) by addition of a primary amine in tetrahydrofuran and subsequent treatment with sodium hydride/triethylamine in the presence of another equivalent of a primary amine or ammonia. Achievable yields of the amides 10, 12 were moderate to good (27-59%, 12-48%), while the corresponding esters 9 could only be obtained in poor yields (4-14%). The new α-amino acid amides are surprisingly stable, and they can be incorporated into small peptides as demonstrated with the preparation of the glycine 13e and the spirocyclopro-paneoxazoline derivative 14e.

Polycyclic systems were obtained from the same reaction carried out with L-aspartic acid 1,4-bis(2-phenylhydrazide) (1d), L-histidine phenylhydrazide (1e) and L-tryptophan phenylhydrazide (1f) which gave perhydro-4,6-dioxo-2,8-diphenyl[1,2,4]triazino[4,5-d][1,2,4]triazepine (5) perhydro-1-oxo-3-phenylimidazo[5,4-d][1,2,4]triazino[4,5-a]pyridine (7) and 1,2,3-H-3-(2-phenylcarbazoyl)-β-carboline (8), respectively. Substrates 1 were conveniently obtained by direct reaction of phenylhydrazine with L-α-amino acid esters retaining the original chirality.

    Notes: Two pairs of novel stereoisomeric, cyclic glycosyl donors exhibit different behaviors in glycosylation processes. In the pair of α-gluco (1) and β-manno (2), the former exhibits reversability with its glycoside product whereas the latter does not. In the α-gluco (3) and β-manno (4) set, the former undergoes glycosyl transfer via an isolable intermediate whereas the latter does not. The differing anomeric effects exerted in the ground states are proposed as the force which explains the differences in behavior.

    Notes: Two components [2-sec-butyl-4,5-dihydrothiazole (1) and 3,4-dehydro-exo-brevicomin (2)] of a male-produced pheromone of the mouse Musmusculus have been synthesized in optically active forms. The enantiomers of 1 were obtained with an enantiomeric purity of ca. 92% ee and were found to be readily racemizable. Asymmetric dihydroxylation was employed as the key reaction (15→16) allowing the preparation of (1R,5S,7R)-2 with ca. 94% ee.

    Notes: The nucleophilic addition of TMSC(Li)N2 at the low reactive C-5 position of the uracil ring of C-6 substituted uracil derivatives is reported. The ratio of C-5 versus C-6 nucleophilic addition of TMSC(Li)N2 dramatically depends on the stereoelectronic properties of the C-6 substituent. In particular, substituents characterized both by sterically bulky and/or electron-withdrawing (EWG) effects appear to direct the nucleophile mainly (methyl, chloromethyl or halogen) or completely (isopropyl) toward the C-5 position. The fine-tuned substituent selectivity found in the nucleophilic addition of TMSC(Li)N2 to C-6 substituted uracils plays a leading role in the synthesis of new trimethylsilyl-1H-[4,3-d]pyrimidin-5,7-dione derivatives, which can in turn be easily modified through known silicon chemistry.

    Notes: The reaction of Ga2X4· 2 dioxane with four equivalents of (Me3Si)3SiLi(thf)3 (= hypersilyllithium) affords for X = Br a 1,3,2,4-disiladigalletane together with tetrahedral hypersilylgallium(I). For X = Cl an anionic 1,2,3,4-silatrigalletanate, a four-membered heterocycle with a Ga3 unit, is isolated. These primary examples of gallium/group-14 heterocycles have been investigated by NMR spectroscopy as well as by X-ray single-crystal structure analysis. In addition, the synthesis and structure of bis(hypersilyl)gallium chloride is described. This monomeric molecule has a nearly T-shaped Si2GaCl framework.

    Notes: Irradiation of imidazole-2-carboxylic acid (3) - matrix-isolated in argon at 10 K - with a wavelength of 254 nm leads to decarboxylation and the formation of a complex between 2,3-dihydroimidazol-2-ylidene and carbon dioxide (1·CO2). Upon irradiation of 2,3-dihydroimidazol-2-ylidene (1) with λ = 254, 193, and 185 nm no imidazole can be detected. On the other hand flash vacuum pyrolysis of imidazole-2-carboxylic acid (3) produces imidazole and carbon dioxide. 2,3-Dihydroimidazol-2-ylidene (1) - the possible intermediate - cannot be trapped under these conditions.

    Notes: The kinetics of the [2+ + 4] cycloadditions of 1,3-dithian-2-ylium ions (1) with 1,3-dienes was investigated photometrically in dichloromethane. The second-order rate constants determined for the reactions of 1 with 2,3-dimethyl-1,3-butadiene (2a) and isoprene (2b) were identical to those calculated for the first step of a stepwise cycloaddition pathway by the correlation lg k = s (E + N). Though a concerted cycloaddition pathway is not excluded by this finding, it is obvious that the transition states of these reactions are not noticeably stabilized by the simultaneous formation of two new σ bonds.

    Notes: A series of differently substituted 2-chloro-, 2-fluoro- and 2-iodo-2,3-dihydro-1H-1,3,2-diazaboroles have been prepared by various methods. 1,3-Di-tert-butyl-2-fluoro-2,3-dihydro-1H-1,3,2-diazaborole (3a), 1,3-di-tert-butyl-2-chloro-2,3-dihydro-1H-1,3,2-diazaborole (5a), 1,3-bis(2,6-dimethyl-phenyl)-2-chloro-2,3-dihydro-1H-1,3,2-diazaborole (5b), 2-chloro-4,5-dimethyl-1,3-dineopentyl-2,3-dihydro-1H-1,3,2-diazaborole (5c), and 1,3-di-tert-butyl-2-iodo-2,3-dihydro-1H-1,3,2-diazaborole (6a) were formed from the corresponding lithiated Z-1,2-diaminoethenes, by treatment with BF3·OEt2, BCl3, or BI3 in n-hexane. Compounds 3a, 5a, and 5b are also available by sodium amalgam reduction of the adduct (tBu)(BF3)N=CH-CH=N(BF3)(tBu) (2a), and the borolium salts [RNa=CH-CH=Nb(R)BCl2]X (Na-B) (4a: R = tBu, X = BCl4 and 4b: R = 2,6-Me2C6H2, X = Cl) respectively. The iodo derivative (2,6-Me2C6H2)-Na-CH=CH-Nb(2,6-Me2C6H2)BI (Na-B) (6b) was synthesized in a redox reaction between the 1,4-diazabutadiene 1b and BI3. The novel compounds were characterized by 1H-, 11B- and 13C-NMR spectroscopy, as well as by an X-ray structure analysis of 6b.Supporting information for this article is available on the WWW under http://www.wiley-vch.de/contents/jc_2005/1998/98047_s.pdf or from the author.

    Notes: The new pyridyl-substituted phosphaferrocene ligands 3 and 6 are prepared by addition of lithiated pyridine or α-picoline to 2-formyl-3,4-dimethylphosphaferrocene (1). The ligands 3 and 6 react with [Cp*RuCl]4 in THF to give the P,N-chelate complexes [Cp*RuCl·3] (9) and [Cp*RuCl·6] (10) with high diastereoselectivity. Addition of monodentate ligands like CO or PPh3 to the complexes leads by displacement of the Ru-bound pyridyl group to the respective carbonyl or phosphane complexes with monodentate P-coordinated phospha-ferrocene ligands. Reaction of the ligand 6 with [(C3H5)PdCl]2 and NH4PF6 gives the seven-membered chelate complex [(C3H5)Pd·6]PF6 (13) which was characterized by X-ray diffraction. The ligands 3 and 6 were tested in the palladium-catalyzed asymmetric alkylation of 1,3-diphenylallyl acetate.

    Notes: While Arduengo-type carbenes are now well established for the Group IVa elements carbon, silicon and germanium, they are experimentally unknown for the isoelectronic anions with the Group IIIa elements boron, aluminum, gallium, and indium. In the present quantum chemical investigations, the bonding features of this class of compounds are explored. As a result, they are predicted to be stable species with sizeable singlet-triplet energy separations and electron affinities. Hence, they may be considered as valid targets for experimental investigations. An analysis of the electron density distribution in the case of boron and aluminum reveals a strongly polar B-N bond for the former, and a half Al-N bond with positive charge at the aluminum, emphasizing the donor-acceptor formulation for the latter.

    Notes: Cyclovoltammetric investigations have been carried out on 3,3,6,6-tetramethylcyclohexane-1,2,4,5-tetrone (4), bicyclo-[3.2.2]nonane-6,7,8,9-tetrone (5), and several of their congeners, such as 6,13-dihydro-6,6,13,13-tetramethylquin-oxalino[2.3-b]phenazine (13), 5,10-dihydro-5,5,10,10-tetra-methylpyrazino[2,3-g]quinoxaline (17), and 6,13-dihydro-6,13-propanoquinoxalino[2,3-b]phenazine (20). For 5 and 20 a large difference (ΔE° ≥400 mV) between the first and second reduction potentials was found. The ESR results of the radical anion 20•- are in support of a strong homoconjugation. ESR studies of 4•-, 13•-, and 17•- also reveal a symmetrical displacement of the unpaired electron over both acceptor groups on the ESR time scale which, however, based on the small potential difference ΔE° ≤ 200 mV can be most likely described to a fast electron exchange.

    Notes: Epibatidine (1) is a recently discovered trace alkaloid found in the skin of a Latin-American poisonous frog. Its remarkably high analgetic activity is accompanied by high toxicity. Therefore, in order to tune its biological activity, a convergent and efficient synthetic pathway was sought to synthesize epibatidine derivatives with different (het)aryl substituents. The hydro(het)arylation of the key intermediate 7-azabicycloheptene (10) represents such an approach. The synthesis of 10 by a Diels-Alder reaction of an N-activated pyrrole (7) with ethynyl p-tolyl sulfone (6) and subsequent steps has been optimized. The crucial last step, the reductive cleavage of the vinyl sulfone 9, has been replaced by a high-yield fluoride-induced degradation of the β-silylated sulfone 12 to give 10. A number of structurally different racemic epibatidine analogs (16b-e) can be prepared by palladium-catalyzed hydro(het)arylation of 10 with iodo(het)arenes 15b-e in good yields.

    Notes: Reactions of the Lewis acids BH3 and BEt3 with trimethylimidazole (1) lead to the borane adducts 2a and 2b. Deprotonation of 2a with n-butyllithium results in the formation of the novel N-borane-substituted imidazol-2-ylidene anion 3a- whereas deprotonated 2b rearranges unexpectedly to the anionic compound 3b-. This can be transformed into the carbene-borane adduct 4 by methylation. The reaction of 3a- with [Mn(CO)5Br] yields the carbene complex 5. Surprisingly, 3a- attacks Fe(CO)5 at a carbon atom which leads to the iron acyl complex anion 6-. The compositions of the products follow from spectroscopic and analytical data and from X-ray structure analyses for Li(thp)+3a-, Li(thf)2+3b- and Li(thp)3+6-.

    Notes: We present evidence of cell death by apoptosis during the development of bone-like tissue formation in vitro. Fetal rat calvaria-derived osteoblasts differentiate in vitro, progressing through three stages of maturation: a proliferation period, a matrix maturation period when growth is downregulated and expression of the bone cell phenotype is induced, and a third mineralization stage marked by the expression of bone-specific genes. Here we show for the first time that cells differentiating to the mature bone cell phenotype undergo programmed cell death and express genes regulating apoptosis. Culture conditions that modify expression of the osteoblast phenotype simultaneously modify the incidence of apoptosis. Cell death by apoptosis is directly demonstrated by visualization of degraded DNA into oligonucleosomal fragments after gel electrophoresis. Bcl-XL, an inhibitor of apoptosis, and Bax, which can accelerate apoptosis, are expressed at maximal levels 24 h after initial isolation of the cells and again after day 25 in heavily mineralized bone tissue nodules. Bcl-2 is expressed in a reciprocal manner to its related gene product Bcl-XL with the highest levels observed during the early post-proliferative stages of osteoblast maturation. Expression of p53, c-fos, and the interferon regulatory factors IRF-1 and IRF-2, but not cdc2 or cdk, were also induced in mineralized bone nodules. The upregulation of Msx-2 in association with apoptosis is consistent with its in vivo expression during embryogenesis in areas that will undergo programmed cell death. We propose that cell death by apoptosis is a fundamental component of osteoblast differentiation that contributes to maintaining tissue organization. J. Cell.

    Notes: A 186-base pair fragment of ors8, a mammalian autonomously replicating DNA sequence isolated by extrusion of nascent monkey DNA in early S phase, has previously been identified as the minimal sequence required for replication function in vitro and in vivo. This 186-base pair fragment contains, among other sequence characteristics, an imperfect consensus binding site for the ubiquitous transcription factor Oct-1. We have investigated the role of Oct-1 protein in the in vitro replication of this mammalian origin. Depletion of the endogenous Oct-1 protein, by inclusion of an oligonucleotide comprising the Oct-1 binding site, inhibited the in vitro replication of p186 to approximately 15-20% of the control, whereas a mutated Oct-1 and a nonspecific oligonucleotide had no effect. Furthermore, immunodepletion of the Oct-1 protein from the HeLa cell extracts by addition of an anti-POU antibody to the in vitro replication reactioninhibited p186 replication to 25% of control levels. This inhibition of replication could be partially reversed to 50-65% of control levels, a two- to threefold increase, upon the addition of exogenous Oct-1 POU domain protein.Site-directed mutagenesis of the octamer binding site in p186 resulted in a mutant clone, p186-MutOct, which abolished Oct-1 binding but was still able to replicate as efficiently as the wild-type p186. The results suggest that Oct-1 protein is an enhancing component in the in vitro replication of p186 but that its effect on replication is not caused through direct binding to the octamer motif. J.

    Heparin-binding EGF-like growth factor in the human prostate: Synthesis predominantly by interstitial and vascular smooth muscle cells and action as a carcinoma cell mitogen (1998)

    Notes: Heparin-binding epidermal growth factor-like growth factor (HB-EGF) is an activating ligand for the EGF receptor (HER1/ErbB1) and the high-affinity receptor for diphtheria toxin (DT) in its transmembrane form (proHB-EGF). HB-EGF was immunolocalized within human benign and malignant prostatic tissues, using monospecific antibodies directed against the mature protein and against the cytoplasmic domain of proHB-EGF. Prostate carcinoma cells, normal glandular epithelial cells, undifferentiated fibroblasts, and inflammatory cells were not decorated by the anti-HB-EGF antibodies; however, interstitial and vascular smooth muscle cells were highly reactive, indicating that the smooth muscle compartments are the major sites of synthesis and localization of HB-EGF within the prostate. In marked contrast to prostatic epithelium, proHB-EGF was immunolocalized to seminal vesicle epithelium, indicating differential regulation of HB-EGF synthesis within various epithelia of the reproductive tract. HB-EGF was not overexpressed in this series of cancer tissues, in comparison to the benign tissues. In experiments with LNCaP human prostate carcinoma cells, HB-EGF was similar in potency to epidermal growth factor (EGF) in stimulating cell growth. Exogenous HB-EGF and EGF each activated HER1 and HER3 receptor tyrosine kinases and induced tyrosine phosphorylation of cellular proteins to a similar extent. LNCaP cells expressed detectable but low levels of HB-EGF mRNA; however, proHB-EGF was detected at the cell surface indirectly by demonstration of specific sensitivity to DT. HB-EGF is the first HER1 ligand to be identified predominantly as a smooth muscle cell product in the human prostate. Further, the observation that HB-EGF is similar to EGF in mitogenic potency for human prostate carcinoma cells suggests that it may be one of the hypothesized stromal mediators of prostate cancer growth.

    Notes: The involvement of serine/threonine protein phosphatases in signaling pathways that control the expression of the cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) gene in human chondrocytes was examined. Okadaic acid (OKA), an inhibitor of protein phosphatases 1 (PP-1) and 2A (PP-2A), induced a delayed, time-dependent increase in the rate of COX-2 gene transcription (runoff assay) resulting in increased steady-state mRNA levels and enzyme synthesis. The latter response was dose dependent over a narrow range of 1-30 nmol/L with declining expression and synthesis of COX-2 at higher concentrations due to cell toxicity. The delayed increase in COX-2 mRNA expression was accompanied by the induction of the proto-oncogenes c-jun, junB, junD, and c-fos (but not FosB or Fra-1). Increased phosphorylation of CREB-1/ATF-1 transcription factors was observed beginning at 4 h and reached a zenith at 8 h. Gel-shift analysis confirmed the up-regulation of AP-1 and CRE nuclear binding proteins, though there was little or no OKA-induced nuclear protein binding to SP-1, AP-2, NF-κB or NF-IL-6 regulatory elements. OKA-induced nuclear protein binding to 32P-CRE oligonucleotides was abrogated by a pharmacological inhibitor of protein kinase A (PKA), KT-5720; the latter compound also inhibited OKA-induced COX-2 enzyme synthesis. Calphostin C (CalC), an inhibitor of PKC isoenzymes, had little effect in this regard. Inhibition of 32P-CRE binding was also observed in the presence of an antibody to CREB-binding protein (265-kDa CBP), an integrator and coactivator of cAMP-responsive genes. The binding to 32P-CRE was unaffected in the presence of excess radioinert AP-1 and COX-2 NF-IL-6 oligonucleotides, although a COX-2 CRE-oligo competed very efficiently. 32P-AP-1 consensus sequence binding was unaffected by incubation of chondrocytes with KT-5720 or CalC, but was dramatically diminished by excess radioinert AP-1 and CRE-COX-2 oligos. Supershift analysis in the presence of antibodies to c-Jun, c-Fos, JunD, and JunB suggested that AP-1 complexes were composed of c-Fos, JunB, and possibly c-Jun. OKA has no effect on total cellular PKC activity but caused a delayed time-dependent increase in total PKA activity and synthesis. OKA suppressed the activity of the MAP kinases, ERK1/2 in a time-dependent fashion, suggesting that the Raf-1/MEKK1/MEK1/ERK1,2 cascade was compromised by OKA treatment. By contrast, OKA caused a dramatic increase in SAPK/JNK expression and activity, indicative of an activation of MEKK1/JNKK/SAPK/JNK pathway. OKA stimulated a dose-dependent activation of CAT activity using transfected promoter-CAT constructs harboring the regulatory elements AP-1 (c-jun promoter) and CRE (CRE-tkCAT). We conclude that in primary phenotypically stable human chondrocytes, COX-2 gene expression may be controlled by critical phosphatases that interact with phosphorylation dependent (e.g., MAP kinases:AP-1, PKA:CREB/ATF) signaling pathways. AP-1 and CREB/ATF families of transcription factors may be important substrates for PP-1/PP-2A in human chondrocytes. J. Cell. Biochem. 69:392-413, 1998. © 1998 Wiley-Liss, Inc.

    Notes: Monoclonal antibodies were generated to vesicular membranes of clathrin coated vesicles enriched for acetylcholinesterase (AChE). One of these, C172, recognizes vesicles which accumulate in muscle cells around nuclei associated with acetylcholine receptor AChR clusters. Immunoblots of muscle extracts and brain purified clathrin coated vesicles show that C172 recognizes a 100 kd band in muscle, but a 180 kd band in brain. Western blots of purified AP180 protein stained with the two antibodies AP180.1 and C172 displayed the same staining pattern. Tryptic digests probed with peptide antibodies (PS26 and PS27) generated to known sequences of AP180 were used to map the epitope for C172 within the brain AP180 sequence. On immunoblots of digested AP180, all AP180 antibodies and C172 recognized a 100 kd tryptic fragment, however only C172 recognized a smaller 60 kd. Our results suggest that the C172 epitope is located within amino acids 305-598 of the AP180 sequence. Confocal fluorescence microscopy of myoblasts and myotubes stained with the C172 antibody gives a punctate immunofluorescence pattern. Myoblasts stained with C172 revealed a polarized distribution of vesicles distinct from that observed when cells are stained with γ adaptin antibody which is known to localize to trans Golgi network. Myotubes stained with C172 antibody reveal a linear array of vesicular staining. Quantitative analysis of C172 reactive vesicles revealed a significant increase in number of vesicles present around the nuclei associated with the acetylcholine receptor clusters. These vesicles did not colocalize with the Golgi cisternae. These results indicate that a protein with homology to the neuron-specific coated vesicle protein AP180, is present in muscle cells associated with vesicles showing significant concentration around postsynaptic nuclei present in close proximity to AChR clusters.

    Notes: Endochondral bone formation involves the progression of epiphyseal growth plate chondrocytes through a sequence of developmental stages which include proliferation, differentiation, hypertrophy, and matrix calcification. To study this highly coordinated process, we infected growth plate chondrocytes with Rous sarcoma virus (RSV) and studied the effects of RSV transformation on cell proliferation, differentiation, matrix synthesis, and mineralization. The RSV-transformed chondrocytes exhibited a distinct bipolar, fibroblast-like morphology, while the mock-infected chondrocytes had a typical polygonal morphology. The RSV-transformed chondrocytes actively synthesized extracellular matrix proteins consisting mainly of type I collagen and fibronectin. RSV-transformed cells produced much less type X collagen than was produced by mock-transformed cells. There also was a significant reduction of proteoglycan levels secreted in both the cell-matrix layer and culture media from RSV-transformed chondrocytes. RSV-transformed chondrocytes expressed two- to- threefold more matrix metalloproteinase, while expressing only one-half to one-third of the alkaline phosphatase activity of mock infected cells. Finally, RSV-transformed chondrocytes failed to calcify the extracellular matrix, while mock-transformed cells deposited high levels of calcium and phosphate into their extracellular matrix. These results collectively indicate that RSV transformation disrupts the preprogrammed differentiation pattern of growth plate chondrocytes and inhibit chondrocyte terminal differentiation and mineralization. They also suggest that the expression of extracellular matrix proteins, type II and type X collagens, and the cartilage proteoglycans are important for chondrocyte terminal differentiation and matrix calcification.

    Notes: Cordyceps sinensiscontains a factor that stimulates corticosteroid production in the animal model. However, it is not known whether this drug acts directly on the adrenal glands or indirectly via the hypothalamus-pituitary axis. In the present study, we used primary rat adrenal cell cultures to investigate the pharmacological function of a water-soluble extract of Cordyceps sinensis(CS) and thesignaling pathway involved. Radioimmunoassay of corticosterone indicated that the amount of corticosterone produced by adrenal cells is increased in a positively dose-dependent manner by CS, reaching a maximun at 25 μg/ml. This stimulating effect was seen 1 h after CS treatment and was maintained for up to 24 h. Concomitantly, the lipid droplets in these cells became small and fewer in number. Immunostaining with a monoclonal antibody, A2, a specific marker for the lipid droplet capsule, demonstrated that detachment of the capsule from the lipid droplet occurs in response to CS application and that the period required for decapsulation is inversely related to the concentration of CS applied. The mechanism of CS-induced steroidogenesis is apparently different from that for ACTH, since intracellular cAMP levels were not increased in CS-treated cells. However, combined application with calphostin C, a PKC inhibitor, completely blocked the effect of CS on steroidogenesis, suggesting that activation of PKC may be responsible for the CS-induced steroidogenesis.

    Notes: During early postnatal development, cardiomyocytes, which comprise about 80% of ventricular mass and volume, become phenotypically developed to facilitate their contractile functions and terminally differentiated to grow only in size but not in cell number. These changes are due to the expression of contractile proteins as well as the regulation of intracellular signal transduction proteins. In this study, the expression patterns of several protein kinases involved in various cardiac functions and cell-cycle control were analyzed by Western blotting of ventricular extracts from 1-, 10-, 20-, 50-, and 365-day-old rats. The expression level of cAMP-dependent protein kinase was slightly decreased (20%) over the first year, whereas no change was detected in cGMP-dependent protein kinase I. Calmodulin-dependent protein kinase II, which is involved in Ca2+ uptake into the sarcoplasmic reticulum, was increased as much as ten-fold. To the contrary, the expressions of protein kinase C-α and ι declined 77% with age. Cyclin-dependent protein kinases (CDKs) such as CDK1, CDK2, CDK4, and CDK5, which are required for cell-cycle progression, abruptly declined to almost undetectable levels after 10-20 days of age. In contrast, other CDK-related kinases, such as CDK8 or Kkialre, did not change significantly or increased up to 50% with age, respectively. Protein kinases implicated in CDK regulation such as CDK7 and Wee1 were either slightly increased in expression or did not change significantly. All of the proteins that were detected in ventricular extracts were also identified in isolated cardiac myocytes in equivalent amounts and analyzed for their relative expression in ten other adult rat tissues.

    Notes: Activin A, a member of the TGF-β superfamily, plays roles in differentiation and development, including hematopoiesis. Our previous studies indicated that the expression of activin A by human bone marrow cells and monocytes is highly regulated by inflammatory cytokines and glucocorticoids. The present study was undertaken to investigate the regulation of activin A gene expression in the human bone marrow stromal cell lines L87/4 and HS-5, as well as in primary stromal cells. Northern blots demonstrated that, like primary stromal cells, the cell lines expressed four activin A RNA transcripts (6.4, 4.0, 2.8, and 1.6 kb), although distribution of the RNA among the four sizes varied. The locations of the 5′ ends of the RNAs were investigated by Northern blots and RNase protection assays. The results identified a transcription start site at 212 nucleotides upstream of the translation start codon. In addition, luciferase expression assays of a series of deletion constructs were used to identify regulatory sequences upstream of the activin A gene. A 58 bp upstream sequence exhibits promoter activity. However, severalfold higher expression requires a positive element consisting of an additional 71 bp of the upstream region. Promoter activity was also identified between 2.5 and 3.6 kb upstream of the start codon. These findings suggest that expression of activin A at the transcriptional level follows complex patterns of regulation. J. Cell. Biochem. 70:8-21, 1998. © 1998 Wiley-Liss, Inc.

    Notes: Eukaryotic cells achieve complexity by compartmentalizing a subset of cellular functions into membrane-bound organelles. Maintaining this high level of cellular organization requires precise regulation of traffic between membranes. This task is accomplished, in part, by rab proteins. How these small GTPases regulate membrane traffic between cellular compartments is not clear. Here we report the characterization of a novel rab GTPase from the soil amoebae Dictyostelium discoideum. The predicted coding sequence of the new rab gene, Dictyostelium rab11b, encodes a protein of 25 kD containing all the structural hallmarks of a rab GTPase. Comparison of the sequence with the GenBank database and cladistic analysis demonstrated Dictyostelium rab11b to be a divergent member of the rab11 branch of rab proteins. Southern analysis revealed the presence of related genes in Dictyostelium. RNAse protection assays showed the Dictyostelium rab11b gene to be expressed at uniform levels throughout growth and development. Gene deletion experiments revealed that Dictyostelium rab11b was not essential for growth or development. Conceivably, the function of rab11b may be redundant with that of related genes in this organism. J. Cell. Biochem. 70:29-37, 1998. © 1998 Wiley-Liss, inc.

    Phosphorylation of phospholamban correlates with relaxation of coronary artery induced by nitric oxide, adenosine, and prostacyclin in the pig (1998)

    Notes: The intracellular mechanisms underlying the action of the endogenous vasodilators such as NO/EDRF, adenosine, and prostacyclin acting through cGMP and cAMP, respectively, are not well understood. One important action of cyclic nucleotides in smooth muscle relaxation is to lower the cytosolic Ca2+ concentration by enhanced sequestration into the sarcoplasmic reticulum. The present study was undertaken to elucidate the potential role of phosphorylation of phospholamban, the regulator of sarcoplasmic reticulum Ca2+ pump, for the control of coronary vascular tone by NO/EDRF, adenosine, and prostacyclin. Phospholamban was identified in pig coronary artery preparations by immunofluorescence microscopy, Western blotting and in vitro phosphorylation. Segments of pig coronary artery, with either intact or denuded endothelium, were precontracted with prostaglandin F2α (PGF2α). In endothelium-denuded preparations 3-morpholinosydnonimine (SIN-1), 5′-N-ethylcarboxiamidoadenosine (NECA), and iloprost (ILO) caused both relaxation and phospholamban phosphorylation with the potency: SIN-1 〉 NECA 〉 ILO. The regulatory myosin light chain was significantly dephosphorylated only by SIN-1. In endothelium-intact pig coronary artery, L-NAME caused additional vasoconstriction and a decrease in phospholamban phosphorylation, while phosphorylation of myosin light chain remained unchanged. An inverse relationship between phospholamban phosphorylation and vessel tone was obtained. Our findings demonstrate significant phospholamban phosphorylation during coronary artery relaxation evoked by NO, prostacyclin, and adenosine receptor activation. Because of the close correlation between phosphorylation of phospholamban and vessel relaxation, we propose that phospholamban phosphorylation is an important mechanism by which endogenous vasodilators, especially endothelial NO/EDRF, control coronary vascular smooth muscle tone.

    Notes: Transforming growth factor-β1 (TGF-β1) regulates a variety of cellular functions. In several types of cells, for example, it acts as a growth inhibitor and an inducer of apoptotic cell death. Although one of the important modulators in retinal vascular development and retinal neovascularization, the effects of TGF-β1 on retinal microvascular cells are not fully defined. We have found that proliferation of both bovine retinal endothelial cells (EC) and pericytes was inhibited by TGF-β1 in a concentration-dependent manner. However, only retinal EC lost viability after exposure to increasing concentrations of TGF-β1 (up to 10 μg/ml) in the presence of 2% fetal bovine serum. Dying EC exhibited the morphological and biochemical characteristics of apoptosis. Fragmented nuclei and chromatin condensation were apparent after staining with the fluorochrome Hoechst 33258 and the reagent ApopTag; moreover, gel electrophoresis of DNA from TGF-β1-treated EC demonstrated degradation of chromatin into the discrete fragments typically associated with apoptosis. The addition of anti-TGF-β1 neutralizing antibody abolished the apoptotic cell death induced by TGF-β1. Because not all the EC in a given culture died after exposure to TGF-β1, we separated the apoptosis-sensitive cells from those resistant to TGF-β1-mediated apoptosis and determined the expression of several proteins associated with this apoptotic pathway. Apoptosis of EC mediated by TGF-β1 was associated with a decreased level of the cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitor p21waf1/cip1, compared with that observed in the apoptosis-resistant cells. In contrast, the translation product of the tumor-suppressor gene p53 was increased in the TGF-β1-treated apoptotic cells. Thus, we propose that p21waf1/cip1 and p53 function in distinct pathways that are protective or permissive, respectively, for the apoptotic signals mediated by TGF-β1. J. Cell.

    Notes: The human vitamin D receptor (hVDR) possesses a unique array of five basic amino acids positioned between the two DNA-binding zinc fingers that is similar to well-characterized nuclear localization sequences in other proteins. When residues within this region are mutated to nonbasic amino acids, or when this domain is deleted, the receptor is still well expressed, but it no longer associates with the vitamin D-responsive element in DNA, in vitro, and hVDR-mediated transcriptional activation is abolished in transfected cells. Concomitantly, the mutated hVDRs exhibit a significant shift in hVDR cellular distribution favoring cytoplasmic over nuclear retention as assessed by subcellular fractionation and immunoblotting. Independent immunocytochemical studies employing a VDR-specific monoclonal antibody demonstrate that mutation or deletion of this basic domain dramatically attenuates hVDR nuclear localization in transfected COS-7 cells. Although wild-type hVDR is partitioned predominantly to the nucleus in the absence of the 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 (1,25(OH)2D3) hormone, treatment with ligand further enhances nuclear translocation, as it does to some degree in receptors with the basic region altered. The role of 1,25(OH)2D3may be to facilitate hVDR heterodimerization with retinoid X receptors, stimulating subsequent DNA binding and ultimately enhancing nuclear retention. Taken together, these data reveal that the region of hVDR between Arg-49 and Lys-55 contains a novel constitutive nuclear localization signal, RRSMKRK. J. Cell.

    Notes: Giant cell tumor of bone (GCT) is one of a few neoplasms in which the macrophage/osteoclast precursor cells and osteoclast-like giant cells infiltrate the tumor mass. Monocyte chemoattractant protein 1 (MCP-1) is a potent chemotactic factor specific for monocytes. In search of relevant cytokines that may enhance the recruitment of these reactive cells, we evaluated the localization and regulation of MCP-1 mRNA and protein in GCT by using Northern blot analysis, in situ hybridization and immunohistochemistry. We also determined whether conditioned medium obtained from GCT cultures can recruit human peripheral blood monocytes (CD68+) in an in vitro chemotactic assay. Using Northern blot analysis, we detected the specific gene transcript for MCP-1 in all GCT samples tested. In situ hybridization and immunohistochemistry revealed that both MCP-1 gene transcript and protein were consistently present in the cytoplasm of stromal-like tumor cells of GCT. Treatment of mononuclear cells from GCT at third passage with TGF-β1 for 24 h increased the level of MCP-1 mRNA in a dose-dependent manner, with the maximum effect at 1 ng/ml. Conditioned media from GCT cultures promoted the chemotactic migration of CD68+ peripheral monocytes, an activity which was abolished by the addition of MCP-1 antibody to the conditioned medium. Thus, the results of this study suggest that recruitment of CD68+ macrophage-like cells may be due to the production MCP-1 by stromal-like tumor cells. These CD68+ cells may originate from peripheral blood and could have the capability of further differentiating into osteoclasts in the tumor. J. Cell.

    Notes: An altered nuclear morphology has been previously noted in association with Ras activation, but little is known about the structural basis, functional significance, signaling pathway, or reproducibility of any such change. We first tested the reproducibility of Ras-associated nuclear change in a series of rodent fibroblast cell lines. After independently developing criteria for recognizing Ras-associated nuclear change in a Papanicolaou stained test cell line with an inducible H(T24)-Ras oncogene, two cytopathologists blindly and independently assessed 17 other cell lines. If the cell lines showed Ras-associated nuclear change, a rank order of increasing nuclear change was independently scored. Ras-associated nuclear changes were identified in v-Fes, v-Src, v-Mos, v-Raf, and five of five H(T24)-Ras transfectants consisting of a change from a flattened, occasionally undulating nuclear shape to a more rigid spherical shape and a change from a finely textured to a coarse heterochromatic appearance. Absent or minimal changes were scored in six control cell lines. The two cytopathologists' independent morphologic rank orders were similar (P〈 .0002). The mitogen signaling pathway per se does not appear to transduce the change since no morphologic alterations were identified in cell lines with activations of downstream components of this pathway - MAPKK or c-Myc - and the rank orders did not correlate with markers of mitotic rate (P 〉 .11). The rank order correlated closely with metastatic potential (P 〈 .0014 and P 〈 .0003) but not with histone H1 composition or global nuclease sensitivity. Based on published studies of five of the cell lines, there may be a correlation between increases in certain nuclear matrix proteins and the Ras-associated nuclear change. J. Cell.

    Notes: It is becoming clear that the cell nucleus is not only organized in domains but that these domains are also organized relative to each other and to the genome. Specific nuclear domains, enriched in different proteins and RNAs, are often found next to each other and next to specific gene loci. Several lines of investigation suggest that nuclear domains are involved in facilitating or regulating gene expression. The emerging view is that the spatial relationship between different domains and genes on different chromosomes, as found in the nucleolus, is a common organizational principle in the nucleus, to allow an efficient and controlled synthesis and processing of a range of gene transcripts.

    Notes: Coiled bodies (CBs) are nuclear organelles whose morphology and composition have been conserved from plants to animals. They are highly enriched in components of three different RNA processing pathways. Small nuclear RNAs (snRNAs) involved in pre-mRNA splicing, rRNA processing, and histone mRNA 3′ end maturation all take up residence in CBs. However, CB function(s) remain obscure. This review will focus on recent developments in several aspects of CB structure and function, including exciting new results on their twin organelles, called gems. In particular, the reader will be introduced to a novel hypothesis called the “salmon theory of snRNP biogenesis.” Questions arising from and experiments necessary to test this hypothesis will be discussed.

    Notes: Even though the involvement of the 67-kDa laminin receptor (67LR) in tumor invasiveness has been clearly demonstrated, its molecular structure remains an open problem, since only a full-length gene encoding a 37-kDa precursor protein (37LRP) has been isolated so far. A pool of recently obtained monoclonal antibodies directed against the recombinant 37LRP molecule was used to investigate the processing that leads to the formation of the 67-kDa molecule. In soluble extracts of A431 human carcinoma cells, these reagents recognize the precursor molecule as well as the mature 67LR and a 120-kDa molecule. The recovery of these proteins was found to be strikingly dependent upon the cell solubilization conditions: the 67LR is soluble in NP-40-lysis buffer whereas the 37LRP is NP-40-insoluble. Inhibition of 67LR formation by cerulenin indicates that acylation is involved in the processing of the receptor. It is likely a palmitoylation process, as indicated by sensitivity of NP-40-soluble extracts to hydroxylamine treatment. Immunoblotting assays performed with a polyclonal serum directed against galectin3 showed that both the 67- and the 120-kDa proteins carry galectin3 epitopes whereas the 37LRP does not. These data suggest that the 67LR is a heterodimer stabilized by strong intramolecular hydrophobic interactions, carried by fatty acids bound to the 37LRP and to a galectin3 cross-reacting molecule.

    Notes: We recently reported that murine MethA mutant but not wild-type p53 specifically binds to MAR-DNA elements (MARs) with high affinity. Here we show that this DNA binding activity is exerted not only by MethA mutant p53 but also by other murine mutant p53 proteins isolated from the transformed murine BALB/c cell lines 3T3tx and T3T3 and differing in their conformational status. High affinity MAR-DNA binding was not restricted to the XbaI-IgE-MAR-DNA fragment from the murine immunoglobulin heavy chain gene enhancer locus [Cockerill et al. (1987): J Biol Chem 262:5394-5397] used in previous studies, as MethA p53 also specifically interacted with other A/T-rich bona fide MARs. Not only murine but also human mutant p53 proteins carrying the mutational hot spot amino acid exchanges 175Arg→His, 273Arg→Pro, or 273Arg→His bound to the XbaI-IgE-MAR-DNA fragment. We therefore conclude that high affinity MAR-DNA binding is a property common to a variety of mutant p53 proteins. J. Cell. Biochem. 69:260-270, 1998. © 1998 Wiley-Liss, Inc.

    Notes: Nuclear matrix protein (NMP) composition of osteoblasts shows distinct two-dimensional gel electrophoretic profiles of labeled proteins as a function of stages of cellular differentiation. Because NMPs are involved in the control of gene expression, we examined modifications in the representation of NMPs induced by TGF-β1 treatment of osteoblasts to gain insight into the effects of TGF-β on development of the osteoblast phenotype. Exposure of proliferating fetal rat calvarial derived primary cells in culture to TGF-β1 for 48 h (day 4-6) modifies osteoblast cell morphology and proliferation and blocks subsequent formation of mineralized nodules. Nuclear matrix protein profiles were very similar between control and TGF-β-treated cultures until day 14, but subsequently differences in nuclear matrix proteins were apparent in TGF-β-treated cultures. These findings support the concept that TGF-β1 modifies the final stage of osteoblast mineralization and alters the composition of the osteoblast nuclear matrix as reflected by selective and TGF-β-dependent modifications in the levels of specific nuclear matrix proteins. The specific changes induced by TGF-β in nuclear matrix associated proteins may reflect specialized mechanisms by which TGF-β signalling mediates the alterations in cell organization and nodule formation and/or the consequential block in extracellular mineralization.

    Notes: Recently, interest has focused on the human gene encoding the putative protein homologous to VAT-1, the major protein of the synaptic vesicles of the electric organ of the Pacific electric ray Torpedo californica, after it has been localized on chromosome locus 17q21 in a region encompassing the breast cancer gene BRCA1. Chromosomal instability in this region is implicated in inherited predisposition for breast and ovarian cancer. Here we describe isolation and biochemical characterization of a mammalian 48 kDa protein homologous to the VAT-1 protein of Torpedo californica. This VAT-1 homolog was isolated from a murine breast cancer cell line (Ehrlich ascites tumor) and identified by sequencing of cleavage peptides. The isolated VAT-1 homolog protein displays an ATPase activity and exists in two isoforms with isoelectric points of 5.7 and 5.8. cDNA was prepared from Ehrlich ascites tumor cells, and the murine VAT-1 homolog sequence was amplified by polymerase chain reaction and partially sequenced. The known part of the murine and the human translated sequences share 97% identity. By Northern blots, the size of the VAT-1 homolog mRNA in both murine and human (T47D) breast cancer cells was determined to be 2.8 kb. Based on the presented data, a modified gene structure of the human VAT-1 homolog with an extended exon 1 is proposed. VAT-1 and the mammalian VAT-1 homolog form a subgroup within the protein superfamily of medium-chain dehydrogenases/reductases. J. Cell. Biochem. 69:304-315, 1998. © 1998 Wiley-Liss, Inc.

    Notes: In connective tissue, cell structure contributes to type I collagen expression. Differences in osteoblast microarchitecture may account for the two distinct cis elements regulating basal expression, in vivo and in vitro, of the rat type I collagen α1(I) polypeptide chain (COL1A1). The COL1A1 promoter conformation may be the penultimate culmination of osteoblast structure. Architectural transcription factors bind to the minor groove of AT-rich DNA and bend it, altering interactions between other trans-acting proteins. Similarly, nuclear matrix (NM) proteins bind to the minor groove of AT-rich matrix-attachment regions, regulating transcription by altering DNA structure. We propose that osteoblast NM architectural transcription factors link cell structure to promoter geometry and COL1A1 transcription. Our objective was to identify potential osteoblast NM architectural transcription factors near the in vitro and in vivo regulatory regions of the rat COL1A1 promoter. Nuclear protein-promoter interactions were analyzed by gel shift analysis and related techniques. NM extracts were derived from rat osteosarcoma cells and from rat bone. The NM protein, NMP4, and a soluble nuclear protein, NP, both bound to two homologous poly(dT) elements within the COL1A1 in vitro regulatory region and proximal to the in vivo regulatory element. These proteins bound within the minor groove and bent the DNA. Parathyroid hormone increased NP/NMP4 binding to both poly(dT) elements and decreased COL1A1 mRNA in the osteosarcoma cells. NP/NMP4-COL1A1 promoter interactions may represent a molecular pathway by which osteoblast structure is coupled to COL1A1 expression. J. Cell. Biochem. 69:336-352. © 1998 Wiley-Liss, Inc.

    Notes: Current information on pancreatic islet sulfonylurea receptors has been obtained with laboratory animal pancreatic β cells or stable β-cell lines. In the present study, we evaluated the properties of sulfonylurea receptors of human islets of Langherans, prepared by collagenase digestion and density-gradient purification. The binding characterisitics of labeled glibenclamide to pancreatic islet membrane preparations were analyzed, displacement studies with several oral hypoglycemic agents were performed, and these latter compounds were tested as for their insulinotropic action on intact human islets. [3H]glibenclamide saturable binding was shown to be linear at ≤0.25 mg/ml protein; it was both temperature and time dependent. Scatchard analysis of the equilibrium binding data at 25°C indicated the presence of a single class of saturable, high-affinity binding sites with a Kd value of 1.0 ± 0.07 nM and a Bmax value of 657 ± 48 fmol/mg of proteins. The displacement experiments showed the following rank order of potency of the oral hypoglycemic agents we tested: glibenclamide = glimepiride 〉 tolbutamide 〉 chlorpropamide ≫ metformin. This binding potency order was parallel with the insulinotropic potency of the evaluated compounds. J. Cell. Biochem. 71:182-188, 1998. © 1998 Wiley-Liss, Inc.

    Notes: Cadherins form a family of cell-cell adhesion proteins that are critical to normal embryonic development. Expression of the various family members is regulated in a complex pattern during embryogenesis. Both reduced and inappropriate expression of cadherins have been associated with abnormal tissue formation in embryos and tumorigenesis in mature organisms. Evidence is accumulating that signals unique to individual members of the cadherin family, as well as signals common to multiple cadherins, contribute to the differentiated phenotype of various cell types. While a complete understanding of the regulation of cadherin expression of the molecular nature of intracellular signaling downstream of cadherin adhesion is essential to an understanding of embryogenesis and tumorigenesis, our knowledge in both areas is inadequate. Clearly, elucidating the factors and conditions that regulate cadherin expression and defining the signaling pathways activated by cadherins are frontiers for future research. J. Cell. Biochem.

    Role of the pro-α2(I) COOH-terminal region in assembly of type I collagen: Disruption of two intramolecular disulfide bonds in pro-α2(I) blocks assembly of type I collagen (1998)

    Notes: Collagen biosynthesis is a complex process that begins with the association of three procollagen chains. A series of conserved intra- and interchain disulfide bonds in the carboxyl-terminal region of the procollagen chains, or C-propeptide, has been hypothesized to play an important role in the nucleation and alignment of the chains. We tested this hypothesis by analyzing the ability of normal and cysteine-mutated pro-α2(I) chains to assemble into type I collagen heterotrimers when expressed in a cell line (D2) that produces only endogenous pro-α1(I). Pro-α2(I) chains containing single or double cysteine mutations that disrupted individual intra- or interchain disulfide bonds were able to form pepsin resistant type I collagen with pro-α1(I), indicating that individual disulfide bonds were not critical for assembly of the pro-α2(I) chain with pro-α1(I). Pro-α2(I) chains containing a triple cysteine mutation that disrupted both intrachain disulfide bonds were not able to form pepsin resistant type I collagen with pro-α1(I). Therefore, disruption of both pro-α2(I) intrachain disulfide bonds prevented the production and secretion of type I collagen heterotrimers. Although none of the individual disulfide bonds is essential for assembly of the procollagen chains, the presence of at least one intrachain disulfide bond may be necessary as a structural requirement for chain association or to stabilize the protein to prevent intracellular degradation.

    Notes: Procollagen (Type I) contains a noncollagenous COOH-terminal propeptide (C-propeptide) hypothesized to be important in directing chain association and alignment during assembly. We previously expressed human pro-α2(I) cDNA in rat liver epithelial cells, W8, that produce only pro-α1(I) trimer collagen (Lim et al. [1994] MatrixBiol. 14: 21-30). In the resulting cell lines, α2(I) assembled with α1(I) forming heterotrimers. Using this cell system, we investigated the importance of the COOH-terminal propeptide sequence of the pro-α2(I) chain for normal assembly of type I collagen. Full-length human pro-α2(I) cDNA was cloned into expression vectors with a premature stop signal eliminating the final 10 amino acids. No triple-helical molecules containing α2(I) were detected in transfected W8 cells, although pro-α2(I) mRNA was detected. Additional protein analysis demonstrated that these cells synthesize small amounts of truncated pro-α2(I) chains detected by immunoprecipitation with a pro-α2(I) antibody. In addition, since the human-rat collagen was less thermostable than normal intraspecies collagen, wild-type and C-terminal truncated mouse cDNAs were expressed in mouse D2 cells, which produced only type I trimers. Results from both systems were consistent, suggesting that the last 10 amino acid residues of the pro-α2(I) chain are important for formation of stable type I collagen. J. Cell.

    Notes: We analyzed the expression of hexose transporters in human testis and in human, rat, and bull spermatozoa and studied the uptake of hexoses and vitamin C in bull spermatozoa. Immunocytochemical and reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction analyses demonstrated that adult human testis expressed the hexose transporters GLUT1, GLUT2, GLUT3, GLUT4, and GLUT5. Immunoblotting experiments demonstrated the presence of proteins of about 50-70 kD reactive with anti-GLUT1, GLUT2, GLUT3, and GLUT5 in membranes prepared from human spermatozoa, but no proteins reactive with GLUT4 antibodies were detected. Immunolocalization experiments confirmed the presence of GLUT1, GLUT2, GLUT3, GLUT5, and low levels of GLUT4 in human, rat, and bull spermatozoa. Each transporter isoform showed a typical subcellular localization in the head and the sperm tail. In the tail, GLUT3 and GLUT5 were present at the level of the middle piece in the three species examined, GLUT1 was present in the principal piece, and the localization of GLUT2 differed according of the species examined. Bull spermatozoa transported deoxyglucose, fructose, and the oxidized form of vitamin C, dehydroascorbic acid. Transport of deoxyglucose and dehydroascorbic acid was inhibited by cytochalasin B, indicating the direct participation of facilitative hexose transporters in the transport of both substrates by bull spermatozoa. Transport of fructose was not affected by cytochalasin B, which is consistent for an important role for GLUT5 in the transport of fructose in these cells. The data show that human, rat, and bull spermatozoa express several hexose transporter isoforms that allow for the efficient uptake of glucose, fructose, and dehydroascorbic acid by these cells. J.

    Notes: Maintenance of compartmental independence and diversity is part of the blueprint of the eukaryotic cell. The molecular composition of every organelle membrane is custom tailored to fulfill its unique tasks. It is retained by strict sorting and directional transport of newly synthesized cellular components by the use of specific transport vesicles. Temporally and spatially controlled membrane fission and fusion steps thus represent the basic process for delivery of both, membrane-bound and soluble components to their appropriate destination. This process is fundamental to cell growth, organelle inheritance during cell division, uptake and intracellular transport of membrane-bound and soluble molecules, and neuronal communication. The latter process has become one of the best studied examples in terms of regulatory mechanisms of membrane interactions. It has been dissected into the stages of transmitter vesicle docking, priming, and fusion: Specificity of membrane interactions depends on interactions between sets of organelle-specific membrane proteins. Priming of the secretory apparatus is an ATP-dependent process involving proteins and membrane phospholipids. Release of vesicle content is triggered by a rise in intracellular free Ca2+ levels that relieves a block previously established between the membranes poised to fuse. Neurotransmitter release is a paradigm of highly regulated intracellular membrane interaction and molecular mechanisms for this phenomenon begin to be delineated. J. Cell. Biochem.

    Notes: Transforming growth factor-β (TGF-β) represents an evolutionarily conserved family of secreted factors that mobilize a complex signaling network to control cell fate by regulating proliferation, differentiation, motility, adhesion, and apoptosis. TGF-β promotes the assembly of a cell surface receptor complex composed of type I (TβRI) and type II (TβRII) receptor serine/threonine kinases. In response to TGF-β binding, TβRII recruits and activates TβRI through phosphorylation of the regulatory GS-domain. Activated TβRI then initiates cytoplasmic signaling pathways to produce cellular responses. SMAD proteins together constitute a unique signaling pathway with key roles in signal transduction by TGF-β and related factors. Pathway-restricted SMADs are phosphorylated and activated by type I receptors in response to stimulation by ligand. Once activated, pathway-restricted SMADs oligomerize with the common-mediator Smad4 and subsequently translocate to the nucleus. Genetic analysis in Drosophila melanogaster and Caenorhabditis elegans, as well as TβRII and SMAD mutations in human tumors, emphasizes their importance in TGF-β signaling. Mounting evidence indicates that SMADs cooperate with ubiquitous cytoplasmic signaling cascades and nuclear factors to produce the full spectrum of TGF-β responses. Operating independently, these ubiquitous elements may influence the nature of cellular responses to TGF-β. Additionally, a variety of regulatory schemes contribute temporal and/or spatial restriction to TGF-β responses. This report reviews our current understanding of TGF-β signal transduction and considers the importance of a cooperative signaling paradigm to TGF-β-mediated biological responses. J. Cell. Biochem.

    Notes: Complex cellular responses involve the integration of heterotrimeric G protein systems with protein kinase signal transduction pathways. Key in this integration is the control of small GTP-binding proteins including Ras and Rho family members. In this paper, we discuss the control of signal transduction pathways by G proteins and their integration with specific tyrosine kinases. The integration of G proteins, kinases, and small GTP-binding proteins in controlling cellular responses is illustrated through the newly defined Gα12/13-regulated pathways. Furthermore, the polymorphonuclear leukocyte provides a primary cell system for analyzing the integration of G proteins, kinases, and small GTP-binding proteins in controlling cellular functions such as superoxide production, adherence, chemotaxis, and granule secretion.

    Notes: Gene targeting and the elucidation of mutations underlying inherited peroxisomal diseases have provided new insights in peroxisomal lipid metabolism in vivo. The work led to the identification of a novel peroxisomal β-oxidation pathway and established clearly that genes, which are required for efficient peroxisomal oxidation of fatty acids, at the same time are key regulators of PPARα function in vivo. The new mouse models may provide helpful tools in the search for unknown natural PPARα agonists and in screening for in vivo PPARα antagonists. J. Cell Biochem.

    Notes: Histone acetylation and phosphorylation destablizes nucleosome and chromatin structure. Relaxation of the chromatin fiber facilitates transcription. Coactivator complexes with histone acetyltransferase activity are recruited by transcription factors bound to enhancers or promoters. The recruited histone acetyltransferases may acetylate histone or nonhistone chromosomal proteins, resulting in the relaxation of chromatin structure. Alternatively, repressors recruit corepressor complexes with histone deacetylase activity, leading to condensation of chromatin.This review highlights the recent advances made in our understanding of the roles of histone acetyltransferases, histone deacetylases, histone kinases, and protein phosphatases in transcriptional activation and repression. Exciting reports revealing mechanistic connections between histone modifying activities and the RNA polymerase II machinery, the coupling of histone deacetylation and DNA methylation, the possible involvement of histone deacetylases in the organization of nuclear DNA, and the role of chromatin modulators in oncogenesis are discussed.

    Notes: Functional interrelationships between components of nuclear architecture and control of gene expression are becoming increasingly evident. There is growing appreciation that multiple levels of nuclear organization integrate the regulatory cues that support activation and suppression of genes as well as the processing of gene transcripts. The linear organization of genes and promoter elements provide the potential for responsiveness to physiological regulatory signals. Parameters of chromatin structure and nucleosome organization support synergism between activities at independent regulatory sequences and render promoter elements accessible or refractory to transcription factors. Association of genes, transcription factors, and the machinery for transcript processing with the nuclear matrix facilitates fidelity of gene expression within the three-dimensional context of nuclear architecture. Mechanisms must be defined that couple nuclear morphology with enzymatic parameters of gene expression. The recent characterization of factors that mediate chromatin remodeling and intranuclear targeting signals that direct transcription factors to subnuclear domains where gene expression occurs, reflect linkage of genetic and structural components of transcriptional control. Nuclear reorganization and aberrant intranuclear trafficking of transcription factors for developmental and tissue-specific control that occurs in tumor cells and in neurological disorders provides a basis for high resolution diagnostics and targeted therapy.

    Notes: Mammalian nuclei are highly organized into functional compartments. Major nuclear processes like DNA replication and RNA processing take place in distinct foci. These microscopically visible foci are formed by the assembly of, for example, DNA replication factors and associated proteins into megadalton complexes often referred to as protein machines or factories. Thus far, two proteins, DNA ligase I and DNA methyltransferase (DNA MTase), have been analyzed in greater detail. In both cases, the assembly process appears to be controlled by distinct targeting sequences that were attached to the catalytic protein core in the course of evolution and mediate the association with replication factories in mammalian cells. The dynamics of these nuclear structures throughout the cell cycle are analyzed using green fluorescent protein (GFP). Further studies are needed to elucidate the architecture, regulation, and role of these subnuclear structures. J. Cell. Biochem. Suppls. 30/31:243-249, 1998. © 1998 Wiley-Liss, Inc.

    Notes: Copper-catalyzed decomposition of alkyl diazoacetates in the presence of semicyclic enaminones 1a-o leads primarily to enamino esters 2 which constitute formal products of C-C insertion of the carbene unit. In the case of N-methyl (1a-e) and N-benzyl (1f-i) enaminones, 2a-i are accompanied by 2,3,5,6-tetrahydroindoles 3a-i, in which two carbene moieties are incorporated. At 250 °C, compounds 2b-e, which could not be isolated in pure form, undergo cyclocondensation to form 1,2,3,5-tetrahydrocyclopenta-[b]pyrroles 4b-e. In contrast, 2f-i can be isolated as Z,E mixtures and are transformed thermally into 4f-i only in the presence of silica gel. Carbene transfer to N-phenyl enaminones 1j-m and N-methyl enamino esters 1n,o leads only to the 1:1 adducts, enamino esters 2j-o, which do not undergo the cyclocondensation reaction under the previous conditions. Dehydrogenation of tetrahydroindoles 3c-e with tetrachloro-p-benzoquinone can be controlled to give either 1,2-dihydroindole-6,7-dicarboxylates 5 or indole-6,7-dicarboxylates 6.

    Notes: Anomeric O-hetarylation of tetra-O-benzyl- and tetra-O-acetylglucose (1a, b) can be directly performed with electron-deficient heteroaromatic/heterocyclic systems 2-14, which contain imide halide moieties. The reactions were carried out in the presence of a base and led, through an exchange of the halide by the glucopyranosyloxy moiety, to the products 2a-14a, 7b-14b. Predominantly or exclusively β-products were obtained. Systems bearing more than one imide halide moiety, such as cyanuric fluoride (15) or 5-chloro-2,4,6-trifluoropyrimidine (16), can be employed for successive anomeric O-hetarylations. Investigation of the glycosyl donor properties of O-glucosyl heteroaromatic imidates with 6-O- and 4-O-unprotected glucose derivatives 18 and 19 as acceptors and comparison of the results obtained with data for the corresponding β-trichloroacetimidates 17aβ and 17bβ, reveals that 2,3,5,6-tetrafluoropyridin-4-yl glucopyranosides 14aβ and 14bβ exhibit similar properties. For specific tasks, for instance α-glucopyranoside formation, 14aβ may even be advantageous.

    Notes: 2-Chloro-1,4-benzodithiin 1,1,4,4-tetraoxide 11 is a reactive dienophile that forms Diels-Alder adducts with a number of dienes. Adducts 17a-j undergo facile dehydrochlorination to give 2,3-substituted 1,4-benzodithiin tetraoxides 18a-j, which react further with another molecule of diene (the same or a different one) affording the “double” adducts 19-23. Upon reductive desulfonylation with sodium amalgam, the latter are transformed to tetrasubstituted polycyclic olefins 24-27. These olefins correspond to the cycloadducts that would theoretically have been formed by the cycloaddition of diatomic carbon with two molecules of diene, reacting in a Diels-Alder fashion.

    Somatostatin increases mitogen-induced IL-2 secretion and proliferation of human jurkat T cells via sst3 receptor isotype (1998)

    Notes: The neuropeptide somatostatin (SRIF) modulates normal and leukemia T cell proliferation. However, neither molecular isotypes of receptors nor mechanisms involved in these somatostatin actions have been elucidated as yet. Here we show by using RT-PCR approach that mitogen-activated leukemia T cells (Jurkat) express mRNA for a single somatostatin receptor, sst3. This mRNA is apparently translated into protein since specific somatostatin binding sites (KI1 = 78 ± 3 pM) were detected in semipurified plasma membrane preparations by using 125I-Tyr1-SRIF14 as a radioligand. Moreover, somatostatin inhibits adenylyl cyclase activity with similar efficiency (IC50 = 23 ± 4 pM) thus strongly suggesting a functional coupling of sst3 receptor to this transduction pathway. The involvement of sst3 receptor in immuno-modulatory actions of somatostatin was assessed by analysis of neuropeptide effects on IL-2 secretion and on proliferation of mitogen-activated Jurkat cells. Our data show that in the concentrations comprised between 10 pM and 10 nM, somatostatin potentiates IL-2 secretion. This effect is correlated with somatostatin-dependent increase of Jurkat cell proliferation since the EC50 concentrations for both actions were almost identical (EC50 = 22 ± 9 pM and EC50 = 12 ± 1 pM for IL-2 secretion and proliferation, respectively). Altogether, these data strongly suggest that in mitogen-activated Jurkat cells, somatostatin increases cell proliferation through the increase of IL-2 secretion via a functional sst3 receptor negatively coupled to the adenylyl cyclase pathway.

    Notes: Desquamin is a glycoprotein that we have isolated from the upper granular layer and the stratum corneum of human epidermis; it is not ordinarily expressed in submerged cultures, whose terminal differentiation stops short of formation of these layers. The exogenous addition of desquamin to human cultured keratinocytes extended their maturation, and hematoxylin staining indicated a loss of cell nuclei. For confirmation, cultured cells were lysed in situ, and the nuclei were incubated with desquamin for several days, then stained with hematoxylin. Damage to the nuclei was evident: the nuclear inclusions remained intact, while the surrounding basophilic nuclear matrix was degraded. Desquamin was then tested directly for nuclease activity. Ribonuclease activity was determined by incubating desquamin with human epidermal total RNA and monitoring the dose-dependent disappearance of the 28S and 18S ribosomal RNA bands in an agarose/formaldehyde gel. On RNA-containing zymogels, we confirmed the RNase activity to be specific to desquamin. Using synthetic RNA homopolymers, we found the active RNase domains to be limited to cytosine residues. On the contrary, DNA was not degraded by an analogous procedure, even after strand-separation by denaturation. J. Cell. Biochem. 68:74-82, 1998. © 1998 Wiley-Liss, Inc.
